All those KDE developers, you'd think they could complete the APIs for wayland. I came up on Linux KDE stuff after the mainframe era and moved from Suse to Kubuntu but gave up on their stuff after a while as it grew heavier. Now those reasons all seem unimportant given modern hardware. Of late I have been having a very good experience with Debian 10 gnome on wayland and I expect KDE will get there too in the next two years and be on wayland (not Xwayland) on Debian stable. I wonder how XFCE (which has become very popular on Debian) will deal with that future. I would guess they will continue on Xwayland and not develop any specific DE wayland APIs, or maybe just wait for KDE to finish theirs and port those.
